In the Pink

When it comes to clothes I am fickle. My dressing up is based purely on whim. I do not have a signature style unless you count my surfy blond tresses - read that as messy hair. I have whims, pure whims. The mood captures me and I go with it. Having said that I do have some fail safe looks for 'fat' days and hormonal interruptions to normal life.

The main factor in my wardrobe is a shift in colours. I had a massive black phase which I am still embracing but this has lead to a love of pink. Yes pink! There is no rhyme or reason for this. If there was one thing that could be said about me - pink is not my bag. Yet I find myself enveloping all things pink with a fondness normally reserved for the petit garcon and Patches Valentino. I need pink in my life. I blame Hong Kong but that is another story...

I was helpfully introducing a friend to Beauty & the Boutique the other day as she was desperate for a top and I knew just what she needed. She was tremendously happy that the online boutique also sells Stila makeup which she loves.

In doing a good turn I found myself falling for a pink tunic dress and snapping it up as it was the last one. Which is a shame because I can't share it with you until it arrives. However I am rather taken by this top which has all the dusky pinkness I could ask for plus the easy of looking like you've made the effort to dress up when clearly you've just bunged the top on over a pair of skinny jeans as you've only got 5 mins to get ready due to walking the dog, reading school books, making the supper and barely a hello/goodbye to the bloke as you dash out the door - kinda of top!
